Yep.. if you kill the animal, and then take it home, then legally you are a poacher... however the person following in the car behind can pick it up, and take it home to eat :)

It's not poaching, poaching is illegally catching game/fish on someone else's property, what you were doing was keeping evidence that the land owner was not keeping his animals off the public highway and you are going to sue them for the damage to your car.

If you don't proceed with the legal action then destroy the evidence by eating it.
 
I hit a sheep in Derby somewhere on a driving lesson, it disintegrated :/ Shook me up, wouldn’t want to do it again.

Unlucky.

Although not quite as unlucky as the guy below, who, when his car began to overheat, pulled over and found this lodged in the front.

unlucky? non non, its lucky!! before you know it, a nice cooked exotic meat.
 
I had a Seagull smack into my windscreen (more of a glancing hit than a full on impact) coming into Margate a few months ago - scared the living crap out of me but no damage done. Not so sure about the bird though :(

Next time I go down that way, his mates will probably crap for England all over my car :p
 
Just had it all checked out, air con radiator shields the main rad anyways, but from what he has said, the only damage is to the plastic grill, which is written off :eek: :D

As far as he could tell, the condensers and aircon rad were fine, so all being well it'll be ok :)

Next time, i'm fitting spikes on the front of the car!
 
Well, on the bad side, just called my local Honda dealer/spares place to be told they do not sell the lower grill seperately, but as part of an entirely new lower bumper which is £150 :eek:

*Wanders off to get cellotape*

Ouch that’s expensive, my dad hit a pheasant last year and it smashed the lower grill on his Mazda. I called into the garage after work to ask how much the part was they said £26+Vat when he went in to order it, it magically became £11+vat. :rolleyes:
